Monitor EMQX cluster by Prometheus and Grafana

Task Target

Deploy EMQX Exporter and monitor EMQX cluster by Prometheus and Grafana.

Deploy Prometheus and Grafana

Prometheus' deployment documentation can refer to Prometheus Grafana' deployment documentation can refer to Grafana

Deploy EMQX Cluster

Here are the relevant configurations for EMQX Custom Resource. You can choose the corresponding APIVersion based on the version of EMQX you wish to deploy. For specific compatibility relationships, please refer to EMQX Operator Compatibility:

:::: tabs type:card ::: tab v2beta1

EMQX supports exposing indicators through the http interface. For all statistical indicators under the cluster, please refer to the document: Integrate with Prometheus

apiVersion: apps.emqx.io/v2beta1
kind: EMQX
metadata:
  name: emqx
spec:
  image: emqx:5

Save the above content as emqx.yaml and execute the following command to deploy the EMQX cluster:

$ kubectl apply -f emqx.yaml

emqx.apps.emqx.io/emqx created

Check the status of the EMQX cluster and make sure that STATUS is Running, which may take some time to wait for the EMQX cluster to be ready.

$ kubectl get emqx emqx

NAME   IMAGE      STATUS    AGE
emqx   emqx:5.1   Running   10m

::: ::: tab v1beta4

EMQX supports exposing indicators through the http interface. For all statistical indicators under the cluster, you can refer to the document: HTTP API

apiVersion: apps.emqx.io/v1beta4
kind: EmqxEnterprise
metadata:
  name: emqx-ee
spec:
  template:
    spec:
      emqxContainer:
        image:
          repository: emqx/emqx-ee
          version: 4.4.16
        ports:
          # prometheus monitor requires the pod must name the target port
          - name: dashboard
            containerPort: 18083

Save the above content as emqx.yaml and execute the following command to deploy the EMQX cluster:

$ kubectl apply -f emqx.yaml

emqxenterprise.apps.emqx.io/emqx-ee created

Check the status of the EMQX cluster and make sure that STATUS is Running, which may take some time to wait for the EMQX cluster to be ready.

$ kubectl get emqxenterprises

NAME      STATUS   AGE
emqx-ee   Running  8m33s

If you are deploying EMQX 4.4 open-source, you need to enable plugin emqx_prometheus by EmqxPlugin CRD:

cat << "EOF" | kubectl apply -f -
apiVersion: apps.emqx.io/v1beta4
kind: EmqxPlugin
metadata:
  name: emqx-prometheus
spec:
  selector:
    # EMQX pod labels
    ${replace_with_your_emqx_pod_label} : label_value
  pluginName: emqx_prometheus

::: ::::

Create API secret

emqx-exporter and Prometheus will pull metrics from EMQX dashboard API, so you need to sign in to dashboard to create an API secret.

Note that it is different to create a secret between EMQX 5 and EMQX 4.4 on the dashboard.

  • EMQX 5 create a new API KEY.
  • EMQX 4.4 create a new User instead of Application

Deploy EMQX Exporter

The emqx-exporter is designed to expose partial metrics that are not included in the EMQX Prometheus API. It is compatible with EMQX 4.4 and EMQX 5, both open-source and enterprise.

Set the arg "--emqx.nodes" to the service name that creating by operator for exposing 18083 port. Check out the service name by call kubectl get svc.

Save the above content as emqx-exporter.yaml, replace --emqx.auth-username and --emqx.auth-password with your new creating API secret, then execute the following command to deploy the emqx-exporter:

kubectl apply -f emqx-exporter.yaml

Check the status of emqx-exporter pod。

$ kubectl get po -l="app=emqx-exporter"

NAME      STATUS   AGE
emqx-exporter-856564c95-j4q5v   Running  8m33s

Configure Prometheus Monitor

Prometheus-operator uses PodMonitor and ServiceMonitor CRD to define how to monitor a set of pods or services dynamically.
